:Personally, I think it's a great idea, I smiled while reading it ! Let's just see what the others think about that.

This seems like an interesting idea, although there have already been two "fake ''Pikmin'' game articles, so maybe we should do something different. And I just came up with an idea:''horror'', in the article "Five nights at PNF-404". it would probably be fun to present the Pikmin series like horror, and imagine what it would be like if Nintendo really steered the franchise in the horror direction. There are already some things that can be found scary in the series: like the creepy [[Water Wraith]] from ''Pikmin 2''. After all, it's imilar to a survival game, so I think adding horror would be cool-and funny! | |||
Note: I'm not sure what the name should be, but FNAF is one of the most popular recent horror franchises, so it could be based off of it. | |||

:Hey, that’s pretty good with the FNAF idea. However, since FNAF isn’t a Nintendo game, so I don’t know how well it would go over. I’ll bet one of the admins could figure this out though. | |||

::When the joke is about a Pikmin version of something else, there's usually a specific reason as to why that game or movie was picked. With Color Splash, it was because the game's mechanics were very controversial to the fans, and if something like that happened to the Pikmin series, it'd be just as controversial. With Pik-Min, it was to tie in with the other wikis's Marvel Cinematic Universe jokes, and because out of all Marvel franchises, Ant-Man is easily the most Pikmin-like. With Hotel Pikmin, the intro to Hotel Mario was picked because it's an iconic meme. | |||
::Simply making a Pikmin game out of Odyssey directly wouldn't be interesting or funny to the reader, since there is no reason for having picked that game, and there are no clear connections. As for FNAF not being a Nintendo franchise, that's not a problem. We've made a joke with a Marvel movie, which isn't even related to video games, so using FNAF is fine. Plus, these jokes aren't real products, of course, and they're just parodies and goofs, making it next to impossible for companies to claim copyright infringement. They probably don't want to bother either, since they're minor jokes, and it would be bad PR to attack jokes like that. | |||
::That said, there's more of a reason to use FNAF (like you said, because of all the scary stuff), but there are still very few connections. Maybe it could work, but it'd need serious discussion and consideration, in my opinion. — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 19:07, March 15, 2019 (EDT) | |||

Even though this year's thing was smaller than usual, it still got a decent laugh out of me. [[User:Pikminidae|Pikminidae]] ([[User talk:Pikminidae|talk]]) 07:53, April 1, 2024 (EDT) | |||
